Mrs. Salgado from Houston TX is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Geography, Keeping It Colorful

Help me give my students the materials they need to be able to create art in the classroom. In world cultures we use a lot of markers and color pencils to create maps, and illustrations of vocabulary.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The prizes such as the cartoon gel pens and the animal erasers would be a great reward for my students who have been doing great in class. Whether it is for a perfect score on a test or doing a good deed. I want to be able to reward my students with something they can use in class. To keep them motivated.

In world cultures we use a lot of markers and color pencils to create maps, pictures of places and illustrations that represent the vocabulary we go over in class.

Some of my students really love getting into art and so I also hope to give my students dual brush markers to be as creative as they can be in their art.

The cube storage bins and basket would help keep their stuff organize in the classroom, in the cabinets and shelves. Supplies, work, and rewards listed above would be organized into this containers.
